Happy to be home!

Last night we finally got back from our trip to NE. We had so much fun in Hastings with Brad's grandparents and hated that is was such a short stay! We had a nice visit with Bob and he really enjoyed watching the kids. We had to keep Will doused in hand sanitizer as he and Ady both came down with colds while in Alliance. Will kept climbing in and out of his stroller and Bob thought it was great and was really impressed with how smart Will is. He loved seeing Ady smile and she was in a great mood while we were there. We also got to see Aunt Karen and Uncle Rich and cousin Tom. It was fun to chat and catch up with them.

The real treat was Jean, Brad's grandmother. She treats us so well when we are there and is just so much fun to chat with and learn things from. She is an amazing cook and more of an amazing woman. It makes me miss my grandmother so much, but is such a comfort to have her as a surrogate grandparent!! She is awesome!!

We finally arrived home last night after a 10 hour car ride (Ady wasn't having a very good day!). We got to our house around 7:30, which is past bedtimes. Will came inside and he was so excited to be back home that he got every toy he owned and played. He didn't have dinner yet, so Brad tried to get him in his high chair and he didn't want to be strapped in a chair any longer for the day. He just wanted to run around and love all of his toys! It was so cute.
